One other thing to take into consideration and probably the most important,MAKE THE CHANGE BEFORE SOMEBODY ESLE DOES AND STEALS THIS AUDIENCE. What other site has a ZR-1 specific forum,the only requirement would be most importantly the site retain the hyphen to let people know the heritage of the site and strict control over the family feel of the site. No nitpicking,harresment of members of any kind,on any level will be tolerated. It’s just a matter of time before somebody starts a forum for all Zs,why not let it be this one?

You can take that to the bank!

Exactly what likely will happen.
In life I have learned that where there is a vacuum, someone or something will always fill it without fail.

I initially have mixed feelings about this.
I could be on board if the uniqueness of the C4 ZR-1 was continued to be acknowledged.
More Z enthusiasts would be great. Just would not want to dilute the quality of this organization as I have noticed on the "other forum".

I would support expansion to all the ZR-1 and ZR1 cars. Most of us love all corvettes and many have other vettes as I do. Of the four generations of Z’s, the c-4 Z will always remain by far the most radical and significant of the group. As others have said, if we don’t take in the other Z’s some other group will and eventually overshadow us.

You know, if some other group takes on the rest of the Z's, this is still where I would come.
I don't see the benefit of opening up to all Z's, other than more recognition for our cars.
More money? What would we do with it?
More members, what would we do with them, say we had a bigger group?
I like people, I like Corvettes, I like cars.
Other than the fact that Chevrolet chose to re-use the ZR1 moniker, these other ZR1's have nothing to do with our cars. Everybody bitches that Chevy reuses monikers, so they re-used ZR1 and we think cars are just like ours???

And we think they all have LT5s

Now if they all had LT5s ……..yes
If not LT5s...…….no
Nothing is like the LT5

So....the engine is not an LT5 but they call it an LT5?
Are the engines even close to an LT5 in function/looks?

If they call it an LT5, then I guess it's an LT5.

I don't believe the engine is the same as our in form, function or looks.
